About This Movie
The Courtyard, directed by Valdas Navasaitis, is a raw and poignant exploration of life in 1970s Lithuania. It’s set in this crumbling house, once grand, now a refuge for different families – you can feel the weight of their despair. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to really soak in the mood of stagnation and loss. The characters are deeply etched; each performance carries an emotional burden, reflecting the struggle against a backdrop of oppressive societal norms. The practical effects are minimal, focusing instead on the authenticity of the setting and the lived experiences of the people within it. It’s not flashy but has this haunting quality, leaving you with a lingering sense of sorrow and reflection on identity and belonging.
